Installing the Rings and Adaptors Once the stove face is dry, it is time to attach each magnetized sensor ring onto the stove. Carefully remove the paper backing from the magnetized senor ring. Ensuring that the arrow on the magnetized sensor ring is pointing up, slide the magnetized sensor ring over the dial shaft and press firmly.
For best results, plug the Base Unit into a wall outlet that is within 15 to 20 feet (5-7 meters) from the stove/range. This helps to ensure a strong wireless connection between the Base Unit and the RangeMinder dials. ™...
The Dial Rings Dial Selection Two sets of dial rings have been included in your RangeMinder box. The ™ set of rings installed at the factory is compatible with most electric stoves. The extra set of rings is for use with gas stoves. Each set of rings has two options.

Installing the Battery First, install a battery into a dial by separating the two halves of the dial (Picture 1) and inserting the battery into the battery holder. Make sure that the positive side is pointing towards the centre of the dial (Picture 2).
